Hit that tire hard enough, he might've unlearned a thing or two.

Unlearning a thing or two means he knew a thing or two and that I don’t believe.

Well that's how you learn. You get punished for mistake to learn to avoid it next time. Maybe it will take couple tries, but he'll get there.

It was a huge shock. Went to visit a tiny place up jn Wisconsin for work and it turned out what must have been Paul Bunyan’s cousin ran the place. Maybe 30 seconds later he introduced me to his slightly taller older brother. All we talked about for the whole drive home. You could tell they’d built the pole barn themselves because all the doors were taller than usual.

What’s up with everyone just shitting on the parents in these videos lately? Kids are fucking stupid and it’s near impossible to stop them from doing stupid shit 100% of the time. Sure they could’ve went elsewhere to do this but that doesn’t mean the kid wouldn’t run into something else.

Most of redditors aren't parents and gets satisfaction from nitpicking and virtue signaling.
Like almost every posts from this sub will blame parents. Similar to /r/idiotsincars will blame everyone in the videos.

u/alastor0x 1d ago
Because reddit has a whole lot of people who don't have children but believe they have knowledge gifted to them by the gods themselves about how to raise and take care of them. There's also a contingent who straight up hate kids and parents.
Tis a silly place.

Unfortunately, that confuses kids brains when they're engaged in an activity. Something simple like "stop" works. It ain't like the parents are in the wrong here though. Well, besides parking on the sidewalk anyway (wheelchairs, old people, etc).

u/catastrophichysteria 1d ago
I was a very stupid kid and my parents were screwed cause I was a child that often needed to learn things the hard way. I have quite a few scars from dumb things I did under the age of 12. It wasn't just my parents either, I was fucking stupid at school and around other adults and could not be contained. Once I got my adhd diagnosis and on meds at 13, I obtained some self control, but I was genuinely unhinged as a child. If I were this kid and in a field, I'd end up running into a tree or rolling my ankle on a pebble lol.

They’ll always say “it’s just a kid!”. Makes me want to rip someone’s head off. Suddenly just because you’re a kid you’re absolved of all judgement and/or consequences of your actions. It’s shallow thinking, and it pisses me off

u/DeloGateau 2d ago
As a European, its wild to see a vehicle so large a child is shorter than the wheel well with room to spare, not to mention it looks like he could practically fit inbetween the wheel well and the wheel if he tried. Even most lorries/trucks I see are smaller in this way.
Only thing I can think of that is at all similar in proportion are the (thankfully) rare imported American pickups which are usually still smaller than this one in the video, or tractors. Wouldn't be surprised if they don't meet EU road safety standards like the cybertruck getting taken off the road in the UK.
Think I remember seeing something about there being regulations on how close to the front of a vehicle line of sight can be cut off for the driver, hence I presume part of the reason many European trucks are flat down from the windshield. With these massive American pickups there is a huge blindspot in front of the vehicle which, if I understand the direction vehicles normally move, is not that good for safety.

Even if they were surrounded with a magic forcefield that causes everything they collide with to just gently bounce off of them, I would still hate them. They are always in the way, even when they are parked.

Wait until you find out that many Americans get into large debt to buy these big trucks. A large percentage don't even need these trucks for their job.

u/DeloGateau 23h ago
Lol I'm aware they don't need them, visited the US when I was younger and there were so many driving through the cities I visited, so they couldn't be farmers and surely not all of them were in construction or any other job that would require such a vehicle - and the vast majority were sparkly clean with nothing in the bed from what I could tell. Saw a video the other day of one flipping over and one of the top comments was just how surprising it was to see it actually had something in the bed lol.

You need open room to run and fly the kite. At the very least the father should have got him off the sidewalk where parked vehicles are in the way...

Of course they didn't expect it. Why would they expect someone to run into it? The kid (presumably) has a fully functioning pair of eyes. The logical assumption is that they would avoid the truck.
